Congrats, looking forward to seeing some pics. Do you know what community or area the car is coming from? Just curious, I spent some time in southern Saskatchewan. My wife's family is there and a cousin owns a salvage yard.
I have a friend with red interior no seats, tinted glass with a new windsheild and rubbers (four door hardtop only) All very reasonably priced. And I have a four door hardtop here too availible for parts as well....in Saskatoon.
gees that helps,I spent all day and yes even in my sleep thinking maybe to call off the 63 deal because I know I will need a complete interior and I mean complete..as far as fabric ect,door panels ,head linner heck anything a mouse can eat and prob more..the body,chrome,and glass ,as far as I can see looks good,and is in my mind why I feel the need to save this one..still on the fence about it a whole interior is a tough one,you all know how crazy I got over a 64 trunk emblem,lol so I better do some more thinking on this one..seems all I do !! haha

lol..a tad crazy I think haha.!! felt bad calling the hard top off but after finding this other poncho I feel alot better..although I still need interior stuff its drk blue and lite blue or black + lite blue inside ..if I get it ?? hoping..Although its all org 327 + glide its not a rare type car so I can do anything to it..gotta redo the bench seat so what the heck thinking buckets and console..IF I can find that is...yep big plans for a car I don't have yet lol

Well I finally went out to see the 63 today in real life...I am a tad upset..pics he sent me and I posted are 6-8 yrs old..car has a couple extra dents ect now,ok I can deal with that.....interior well ok the mice have also changed that alot ya ok gotta redo anyways...but it was also supposed to have been a unmolested org car..well 327 is in a shed,owner figures maybe a rod bearing and now hes got a 74 350 2bl in the car instead..so wasn't thrilled ...don't know if its because its cold out and I have gotten lazy or that I think hes asking to much for what shape ect it is now in ?? thinking probably both...my gut says leave it alone.got all winter to think on it so I will listen to my gut on this one..really the hard top is half the price and better shape..but I am sure hes a tad peaved at me so better leave that alone also...thinking the search will continue.
Someone come get this car before I put it away for the winter! Now sitting on a set of rollers asking $2300 or show me your trades (no project cars please). Selling my 1960 pontiac strato chief 2 door post. Canadian pontiac so shorter than an american pontiac and run on a chevy frame rather than pontiac so the parts are easier to get. Very cool car and rare in a 2 door. The vehicle is an excellent candidate for a restoration. Someone has patched floors and trunk already. Most missing trim is in the trunk. Straight 6 3 on the tree runs and drives but should be trailered home. Included is a very expensive($1600) brand new windshield that goes with the car. Can send more pics. Also now have a car hauler, can include transport within a reasonable distance.
Looks good Bill.
